Vanema

Welcome to Vanema, a pioneering force in the realm of aviation comfort and innovation. Established in 2016 by entrepreneur Sandi Cesko, the visionary founder of Studio Moderna, Vanema stands as the exclusive developer of Octaspring® technology for the aviation industry. Drawing upon over fifteen years of expertise in crafting premium mattresses and sleep products, Vanema has assembled a team of experts dedicated to revolutionizing aircraft seating through the application of Octaspring® technology. At the heart of our revolutionary approach lies Octaspring®, a cutting-edge technology designed to redefine passenger comfort while simultaneously achieving a remarkable reduction of up to 30% in seat cushion weight. Octaspring® employs individually placed, eight-sided foam springs that move three-dimensionally, ensuring an even distribution of body weight across the entire seat surface. This innovative design minimizes pressure points, offering passengers an unparalleled ergonomic experience without incurring additional costs. The versatility of Octaspring® allows for the creation of customized zones with varying firmness, enhancing the overall seating experience. Each Octaspring® foam spring, occupying only half the weight of an equivalent foam block, contributes to substantial weight savings – up to 30% in finished seat cushions. Whether integrated into newly designed seat cushions or utilized to refurbish older models, Octaspring® technology not only enhances comfort but also delivers significant fuel savings. Our meticulous calculations indicate that on long-haul routes, the integration of Octaspring® can result in fuel savings of up to per aircraft per year, in addition to reducing CO2 emissions. By seamlessly combining comfort with sustainability, Vanema is dedicated to creating value for airlines and seat manufacturers alike.
